A source-backed walkthrough to configure AI companion notifications without exposing message previews, with scoped permissions and explicit unknowns.

THE QUESTION

What this page owns

Configure AI companion notifications without exposing message previews.

Begin with the named task and preserve the setup. Do not turn a product statement, automated scan or reachable page into proof that a person can complete the task.

REPEATABLE PROTOCOL

Four steps, one documented result

  1. 01

    Start with fictional, low-risk test content and record the exact device, software version and current setting.

  2. 02

    Choose whether notifications are needed before enabling them for an adult companion service.

  3. 03

    Send a harmless test notification and check its app name, sender detail and message preview on each screen.

  4. 04

    Record pass, problem or not checked; restore the least-permissive practical setting and note what remains unknown.

EVIDENCE TO KEEP

Make the observation reproducible

Setup
Device, operating system, browser, input method and assistive technology.
Task
Starting point, action and expected outcome in plain language.
Result
Pass, barrier observed or not checked — never a guessed score.
Limit
Device controls reduce avoidable exposure, but they do not prove what a service stores or deletes. Keep vendor policy, local observation and unknown behavior clearly separated.
SPONSORED CASE STUDY

Keep the route separate from the evidence.
